Mission and Values Statement

Elliotsville Plantation, Inc. is a non-profit foundation established for the acquisition and conservation of land and the preservation of open space for the benefit of the public and for the conduct of educational and stewardship programs in furtherance of land conservation. EPI currently holds and manages over 84,000 acres of wild lands in the forests of northern and coastal Maine. These properties are often adjacent to other conserved lands, and serve to buffer them from incompatible uses. We are in the process of creating stewardship plans for these lands. Our stewardship goals are to:

  • Preserve and restore native plant and animal species, natural communities and processes, historic cultural and scenic assets, and the wild character of the land;
  • Provide for compatible public access and low-impact human use;
  • Promote public awareness and appreciation of the value of preserving core wild areas and connecting them on a landscape scale.

Our management strategies are to limit roads, motorized equipment, motorboats, and aircraft landings in the protected areas except as necessary to meet requirements for the administration of the area. We work with State and Federal agencies in order to allow adequate access for fire and disease prevention, search and rescue, and fisheries management. As a matter of policy, our properties are managed as wildlife sanctuaries and hunting and trapping are generally not permitted.
